A method and circuit for controlling the brightness of a backlight in a display device. The circuit comprises a backlight brightness selecting block that measures the brightness of ambient light and selects brightness information of the backlight based on the measured brightness of the ambient light. An image processing block performs image processing on received image signal based on the measured brightness of the ambient light, and calculates an image processing gain of the received image signal based on the result of image processing and the received image signal. A backlight adjusting unit controls the brightness of the backlight based on the selected backlight brightness information and the image processing gain.

Abstract:
A system and method for providing a content download service, that preferably includes a content service server for receiving a request for a content service from a client terminal accessed through a network, and identifying the client terminal and one or more sub-client terminals connected to the client terminal to route the requested contents and a download control signal. A client terminal obtains inherent information from one or more adjacent terminals to request a service from the content service server, and decodes transmitted contents by using the inherent information of the adjacent terminals when receiving the download control signal from the content service server.
Abstract:
A method of adjusting value includes calculating a value of saturation from an input image signal, and adjusting a value of value of the input image signal according to a calculated saturation value. In the method, the value of value of the input image signal is adjusted by using a value adjustment algorithm for determining a value adjustment rate that decreases the value according to the saturation value.

Abstract:
An injection molding system includes an injection mold set to form injection molded products through repeated injection molding, and a printing device to press a film coated with colors onto an intermediate injection molded product to print the colors onto the intermediate injection molded product. The intermediate injection molded product is printed with the colors coated onto the film to shorten a printing time and semipermanently conserve a printed figure. Further, even if the film is deviated slightly from a predetermined correct position, printing a desired figure correctly on the intermediate injection molded product is possible.
